The Norwood MotorFest takes place August 21-22, 2026, at Factory 52 in Norwood, Ohio. The all-make-and-model car show celebrates the birthplace of the F-Body and features the GM “Built-Here” Showcase.
Friday evening kicks off with a cruise-in at Fleetwood Brewery. Saturday features a show-and-shine car show with top 20 awards and best of show popular vote. Car registration is $25, and the first 75 cars receive a show dash plaque. General admission is free for spectators.
The event showcases the 1987 Camaro IROC Z, the last car built at the Norwood plant, now fully restored. Attendees can tour a Norwood-built concourse section, meet former plant workers, and visit a GM Norwood plant mini-museum. Guided shuttle bus tours of the GM Norwood plant grounds depart from Factory 52.
A special premiere screening of the documentary “Norwood, Where Legends Were Born” includes a filmmaker Q&A. Proceeds benefit Norwood Ready Kids and Norwood’s Baby Bear. Registration and tickets are available at MotorFestShow.com.
